It has a very powerful message. Are you ready to discover your life?

Song Lyrics to “It’s My Life”

This ain't a song for
the broken-hearted
A silent prayer for
faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a
face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out aloud

Chorus:

It's my life
If it's now or never
And I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

This is for the ones who
stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who
never backed down
Tomorrow's getting
harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks

Chorus:

It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

Better stand tall when
they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break,
baby, don't back down

Chorus:

It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive

It's my life
(It's my life)
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life!”

Who believes that what and how much we eat is a matter of conscious choice?

Peter Clothier’s blog, A Diet of Choice

answered this question well: I give myself…“permission to eat and drink as much and as often as I want to, but undertake to be conscious of the choices I make and aware of their consequences.”

Make your conscious choices, because

After all, it’s about a healthy lifestyle!

It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive

Comment by Your Best Life (Angie Hurst) on February 15, 2008 at 6:40am: I too have been a fan. Since my teens actually, which was forever ago! :) I loved the concert on CMT not long ago with Bon Jovi and Sugarland!

Comment by David on February 15, 2008 at 8:05am: The song and lyrics are terrific, and more importantly, provide a powerful message.

Comment by Eve on February 15, 2008 at 10:46am: My daughter's a Bon Jovi fan. Otherwise I wouldn't even recognize the name. I'm old. What can I say? I really feel old today. Maybe tomorrow I'll be younger. :>

Comment by Solomon on February 15, 2008 at 11:28am: That really is a great song. And you've made me want to listen to it "right now!" LOL.

Comment by workout mommy on February 15, 2008 at 11:52am: oh, I so love Bon Jovi and his music! So much so I am going to his concert this month. :)

Comment by Ask The Dietitian on February 15, 2008 at 11:57am: Well, I'm jealous. However, I have seen him 3 times in concert. He was so tiny. I never get the good seats.
